With winter break winding down, it’s good to remember to start getting your children back into a daily pattern. Northstar Elementary Principal John Keitges says that he understands the excitement of winter break and knows that bedtimes may be extended for some children. He says that the last few day of break are a good time to start gradually getting your child back into the daily routine they are used to during the school year. Keitges notes that this will make things easier for both parents and teachers when the first school day of 2012 comes around.
